I'm seeing the same whilst trying to synchronize a CVS repository inside
Eclipse. Using the java-1.5.0 VM is fine.

Comment 4 Lillian Angel 2008-02-01 15:29:55 UTC 
I can get this segfault with both IcedTea and OpenJDK. This is a problem we need
to track down in OpenJDK and report upstream.

Stack trace of Segfault

Stack traces (from all threads) of segfault and abort signal received at the
exact moment eclipse crashes. (used fcatch)
Comment 6 Lillian Angel 2008-02-04 18:07:30 UTC 
I reported this upstream with a stack trace/hs_err_pid*.log relevant to openjdk.
I will post the link to the bug report as soon as it is accepted.
Comment 7 Lillian Angel 2008-02-04 20:22:50 UTC 
For the time being, you can use this work around:

run eclipse with "-vm /path/to/lib/i386/libjvm.so" instead of "-vm
/path/to/bin/java"
Comment 8 Lillian Angel 2008-02-08 16:30:34 UTC 
This has been determined a bug by Sun. It will probably show up in a day or two,

Comment 9 Lillian Angel 2008-07-15 15:43:50 UTC
